[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Setup was easy and painless. Readings felt consistent with how my body actually feels after eating meals and doing workouts. The app is very easy to use with graphs and useful daily insights. I wouldn’t use this in the long term but it’s worth it if you’re curious about metabolic patterns and want to look at the data.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My device didn't function at all.I have tried several times,followed the instructions perfectly but nothing happened. It was easy and painless to put the detector on but for some reasons it didn't connect with the app on my phone.

Great glucose insights, but the app loses connection with the sensor too often.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall, I’ve had a good experience with the Lingo Continuous Glucose Monitor. The sensor is comfortable to wear, easy to apply, and the app is simple to use. However, I’m giving it 4 stars because the app frequently loses connection with the sensor, requiring me to reconnect it. Aside from that issue, the glucose insights have very helpful for understanding how my diet and daily habits affect my glucose level.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It was my first time tracking my glucose levels and I had a great experience. The sensor was comfortable to wear, I often forgot I even had it on. It helped me to identify which foods and habits cause glucose spikes, allowing me to make healthier choices and reduce those peaks.
Painless, accurate, durable, and very informative.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] If you're like me, you've always wondered how well these CGM's work, how they are applied, and how comfortable they are. I'll address each of these questions here:
For starters, applying this device is very easy and painless. It comes with intuitive instructions that are easy to follow. The applicator that applies the monitor to your skin does so with a quick "snap" that is painless. After applying the device, I did feel some very mild pinching when moving my arm in different directions, but after that initial sensation, I didn't feel that again.
I wore this CGM for two weeks, just like the package suggested. During that time, I did my normal routine of weightlifting 5 days per week, running around 5k 3 days per week, and even went to the beach several times where I swam and sweat profusely. The Lingo monitor tracked my glucose accurately during all of that and had no issues staying adhered to my skin.
The information it provided was very helpful. It allowed me to see how the foods I ate throughout the day affected my blood glucose and, therefore, my insulin. It also showed me where I was having a random glucose spike around 3 am. that was causing me to wake up at night. As someone who is very health conscious, it was nice to be able to see how food and exercise affected my glucose levels.
The Lingo app is also very intuitive and easy to use. It's chock-full of helpful tips and advice on how to improve your glucose spikes and overall health.
I would 100% recommend this product to everyone. I think everyone should spend at least two weeks monitoring their glucose to see what their diets are doing to their bodies. It's important in today's society.
This is a valuable tool allowing for personal insight into your body’s glucose patterns

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Lingo Continuous Glucose Monitor is a very informative tool. The biosensor is quick and relatively painless to apply. The biosensor is very durable, allowing you to carry out your normal daily activities without interruption. The biosensor connects easily via Bluetooth to the Lingo app on your personal device. As long as your device is nearby, the connection is strong. If the Biosensor loses its Bluetooth connection, it only takes a few seconds to re-establish the connection once the device is within range to reconnect. The app shows real-time glucose levels and has several other valuable health tools, including some fun challenges to encourage you to be more involved in your health tracking. The app offers a handy graphing feature so you can visually see your glucose levels over a period of time.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was so much easier than I was expecting. I was shocked that you don't even feel anything when you attach it to your arm. It took about an hour to get my 1st read and its been a breeze ever since. Working from home and being in back to back meetings all day I tend to skip meals until end of the day only to feel awful after the first meal. Keeping track of spikes and having the app to slightly nudge me has been a game changer. Im no short of a caffine addict but I noticed that since tracking my glucose and ensuring im staying within range Im not needing my midday coffee. I feel so much more energized. Not that I need to lose much weight but I didnt notice fat loss as well. Definitely a win/win!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was an incredibly fun and interesting product to test! I did not know I needed a continuous glucose monitor until I tried this. This is an amazing product. One star was deducted because it only lasted 7 days, while the instructions suggested 11 to 14.
To begin, this product is easy to apply. I was worried it would hurt, but there was barely any sensation when I applied it to my arm. The app is easy to use and it gives feedback as soon as it's on. It was incredible to watch my body process glucose in real time. I enjoyed "testing" myself with various foods and seeing how my body responded. The app gives you a score to grade you on your levels. I am very motivated to stay within my limits, so this helped my eating habits with minimal effort. The data doesn't lie!
Although I took a star off for the shortened usage, it was very easy to request support through the app. The product is more expensive if you're only able to use it for several days.
Overall, this is super cool and useful gadget. It gave me a lot of insight about my eating, and how my body is processing glucose. I was certainly able to learn a lot about myself and how food impacts my body. I would absolutely recommend this to anybody.
